Brivo Adds Senior Staff and Space Amid Continued Expansion
Continued strong sales spur addition of industry veterans and new sales territories
 Bethesda, MD, March 11, 2008 – Brivo Systems, LLC, the leader in Web applications for access control and security systems, today announced the addition of new senior staff, the creation of an additional sales territory, and the expansion of its headquarters to accommodate continued growth.
Brivo has enjoyed strong sales growth over the past several years. A rapidly expanding product line and projected sales increases in both North America and in new international markets require the addition of senior staff, as well as other positions vital to the continued excellent support Brivo provides its customers.
Brivo veteran Dave Williams has been promoted to Vice President of North American Sales. This new position was created to provide closer support for Brivo’s now nine North American territories. The nine territories include Canada, which has experienced strong recent growth, and the new Central region. Williams commented, “This industry has proven that while technology is certainly important, people still buy from people. Brivo staff reinforce that truth each and every day by forming true, effective partnerships with our customers. It excites me to be a part of such a great company and sales organization.”
Filling the Director of National Accounts position vacated by Williams on his promotion is Ethan Lewis, an industry veteran with more than 20 years experience in electronic security. Lewis’ sales experience ranges from working at the dealer and integrator level to forging lasting partnerships in the manufacturing arena. Lewis says of his new role that effective partnering, integrity, and enthusiasm are his key ingredients for success. He is based in Birmingham, Alabama.
The new Central region, covering Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, West Virginia, and Western Pennsylvania, will be managed by Chris Gilbert. Gilbert has more than 10 years of experience in the security marketplace and will utilize this knowledge to bring Brivo access control solutions to this new region. From his home in Louisville, Kentucky, Gilbert will be operating in familiar territory.
Landon Hunsucker takes over the Southeast region, after working at HSM Electronic Protection Services and Stanley Security Solutions. Prior to joining the security industry, he spent over 20 years working with software, IT, and high-tech companies. Hunsucker looks to leverage his combined security and IT background to further expand Brivo’s success in the Southeast region.
In addition to these promotions and the growth of the sales team, Brivo has acquired more office space for its headquarters, just one year after moving to the larger location. The new space will be dedicated to the Customer Care technical support staff.
